Question #1
The velocity of sound is maximum in
A. Vacuum
B. Air
C. Steel
D. Water

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Speed of sound: solids > liquids > gases. In steel ~5000 m/s, water ~1500 m/s, air ~340 m/s. Vacuum no propagation. Speed depends on density and elasticity.

Question #2
Which of the following statements is perfectly true regarding uniform circular motion?
A. Speed is constant but velocity changes continuously.
B. Both speed and velocity are constant.
C. Both speed and velocity change continuously.
D. Velocity is constant but speed changes.

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
In uniform circular motion, the magnitude of velocity (speed) remains constant. However, the direction of motion is continuously changing tangentially at every point on the circular path. Since velocity is a vector quantity (requiring both magnitude and direction), a change in direction means the velocity is changing continuously, resulting in an accelerated motion.

Question #3
Heat transfer by fluid motion is:
A. Conduction
B. Convection
C. All three
D. Radiation

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Convection: bulk fluid motion carries heat (natural: density-driven; forced: pump/fan). Conduction: molecular collisions; radiation: EM waves. Memory aid: 'Convection = fluid flow + heat; e.g., boiling, weather'. Heat transfer mode frequently tested in competitive exams.
